serving in Macau, Southeast Asia
David and Barbara Bush serve the Lord through The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS) as career missionaries in Macau. David serves as the director of the Concordia English Center in Macau. He supervises and creates curriculum for the program and oversees the staff and enables them so they are able to be as effective as possible. David also works to raise funds for the Center and its programs. David and Barbara provides guidance and assistance to the Macau Lutheran Deaf Outreach, utilizing the knowledge gained and skills developed when he served more than 25 years in various areas of Deaf ministry within the LCMS (including serving as student-pastor here at Christ Lutheran Church of the Deaf).
Prayers
Please pray for David and Barbara as they serve in Macau. Pray for both of them as they transition to life in Asia, learning new languages (Cantonese language and Chinese sign language) and the culture. Pray specifically for Barbara as she is Deaf and is nervous about traveling (and living) outside of the United States for the first time. Ask God to keep them safe as they travel around Macau, meeting people, building relationships and engaging in their daily routine. Please pray also that the Holy Spirit would open many doors of opportunity to share the Good News of Jesus Christ and plant seeds of faith in the hearts of those they encounter as they work and live. Pray for God’s continued care of their four grown children and 12 grandchildren as David and Barbara are far away from them. Finally, let us give thanks that the Bushes have answered God’s call to serve as His witnesses in Macau.
